the Hospital for Special Surgery - New York NY

International Classification:

A47B 700

US Classification:

5621

Abstract:

A patient support device for supporting a patient at four points during back-related surgery. The device includes a generally rectangular frame having two opposing end members and two opposing side members. Two front posts are slidably mounted to one of the two end members. A travelling member is slidably mounted to both side members and may be displaced in a longitudinal direction between the two end members. Two rear posts are slidably mounted to the travelling member and may be displaced therealong, in a transverse direction between the side members. A front lead screw assembly is connected to the two front posts and allows simultaneous and opposing displacement of both front posts along the end member so that both front posts may be moved an equal distance from a center axis. Similarly, a rear lead screw assembly is connected to the two rear posts to allow simultaneous and opposing displacement of both rear posts along the travelling member. Each post includes a U-shaped channel to collectively accommodate a film cassette used in radiography.

International Classification:

A61F 238

US Classification:

606 79

Abstract:

A patella cutting clamp comprises a pair of jaw members joined together in scissors-like relation for pivotal movement relative to each other about a pivot axis intermediate their ends. Each jaw member has a handle portion extending in one direction from the pivot axis and a jaw portion extending in the other direction. The jaw portions have edges facing each other that are shaped for engagement with opposite borders of a patella. Teeth along the patella-gripping edges grip and hold the patella firmly. Saw guide slots in the jaw portions lying in a common plane guide the saw when the saw cut is made. A patella elevator member is attached to the jaw members for movement along the pivot axis and has a platform portion adapted to engage the anterior aspect of the patella. A mechanism is provided for establishing and maintaining a predetermined position of the elevator member relative to the jaw members and thereby positioning the patella at a predetermined position relative to the saw guide slots. Another mechanism holds the jaw members in an adjusted position relative to each other with the jaw portions engaging and holding the patella.
